Jens Pottebaum, Robin Marterer, Steffen Schneider · ISCRAM · 2014

Training is a prerequisite for effective and efficient emergency response and management. Information technology (IT) offers high potential to support various educational methods and environments. One example for interdependent use cases is given by planning, controlling, observation and debriefing of training exercises. Dedicated IT systems are available to support these use cases; nevertheless, there is no joint understanding of system use cases, types and functionality as a fundament for scientific and technological progress. This work in progress paper presents results of literature and market research complemented by expert interviews leading to a taxonomy of relevant IT components and systems.
